Launched back in October 2017, Mindhunter instantly became a hit for Netflix, thanks to the direction of David Fincher and its compelling deep-dive into the psyche of serial killers.

Set in the late-70s, and centring around the development of criminal profiling and psychology at the FBI, the show cashed-in on the true crime wave by taking a meticulous (if dramatised) look at the people who have to study serial killers and solve the cases, led by a great Jonathan Groff performance.

It's been a heck of a long wait for Season 2, but filming has recently wrapped and the show is coming back at some point this year, and will even be introducing Charles Manson into the mix - played by the same actor who portrays him in Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon A Time In Hollywood, no less.

NCTJ-qualified journalist. Most definitely not a racing driver. Drink too much tea; eat too much peanut butter; watch too much TV. Sadly only the latter paying off so far. A mix of wise-old man in a young man's body with a child-like wonder about him and a great otherworldly sensibility.
